 G   B7   Em(Em) x2
         G                         B7   Em(Em)
 How many times have you used that line?
                    G                         B7   Em(Em)
 Did you replace the last two dozen names with mine?
                 G                       B7   Em(Em)
 Was “I love you, baby” second nature by now?
                         G                                  B7   Em(Em)
 ‘Cause it sounds awful rehearsed when the words leave your mouth
 CI don’t know Dwhy
 But it seems that I’m Gnot the first
 To have Emheard this speech
             C                 D   Em(Em)
 Is this a routine you just repeat?
                   G(G7)
 'Cause I don’t mean to presume that
 CYou don’t love me like you Cmsay you do
 But you’re Cgonna have to prove that you’re Dtrue;
 And you’re not just talkin’ Gsmooth
 G   B7   Em(Em) x2
                   G                    B7   Em(Em)
 Your performance deserves an academy award
                        G                          B7   Em(Em)
 And it’s a double-edged-sword ‘cause I sure feel adored
             G                            B7   Em(Em)
 Just between us, I’d rather see you slip up
 Don’t you know, Git’s those less than B7perfect words
               Em(Em)
 I can’t get enough of
 CMaybe I’m Dout of my head
 But I’m Gtelling you, baby, that EmI’ve been misled
 CSo if the record’s Doff, could you get it Emset?
            G(G7)
 I don’t mean to presume that
 CYou don’t love me like you Cmsay you do
 But you’re Cgonna have to prove that you’re Dtrue;
 And you’re not just talkin’ Fsmooth
 Well you’ve proven your charm is a Ccrime
 FWhy don’t you see the harm
 In relCying on Amthis disguise?
 You’re Gmlosing me with every little
          C#m   G   B7   Em(Em) x2
 Wink of the eye
 GThe end of my B7rope
 Is slipping out of my Emhold
 GSo, if you’re clever, you’d B7better
 Do some damage contrEmol
 CAnd I don’t know Dwhy, but it seems
 You’ve made a Ggame out of
 Making a Emfool out of me
 CAnd I did not sign Dup
 To be your tongue-in-Emcheek
            G(G7)
 I don’t mean to presume that
 CYou don’t love me like you Cmsay you do
 But you’re Cgonna have to prove that you’re Dtrue;
                              G   B7   Em(Em) x2
 And you’re not just talkin’ smooth
           G                              B7   Em(Em)
 Oh can you prove you’re not just talkin’ smooth
